< Psalms 132 >

1 A Song of Ascents. Remember, O Yahweh, unto David, all his humiliations!
The song of greces. Lord, haue thou mynde on Dauid; and of al his myldenesse.
2 What he Sware to Yahweh, —Vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
As he swoor to the Lord; he made a vowe to God of Jacob.
3 Surely I will not enter the home of my own house, nor ascend my curtained couch;
I schal not entre in to the tabernacle of myn hous; Y schal not stie in to the bed of mi restyng.
4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, nor, to mine eye-lashes, slumber:
I schal not yyue sleep to myn iyen; and napping to myn iye liddis.
5 Until I find a place for Yahweh, habitations for the Mighty One of Jacob.
And rest to my templis, til Y fynde a place to the Lord; a tabernacle to God of Jacob.
6 Lo! we heard of it at Ephrathah, we found it in the fields of the wood.
Lo! we herden that arke of testament in Effrata, `that is, in Silo; we founden it in the feeldis of the wode.
7 We would enter his habitations, we would bow down at his footstool.
We schulen entre in to the tabernacle of hym; we schulen worschipe in the place, where hise feet stoden.
8 Arise! O Yahweh, unto thy place of rest, Thou, and the ark of thy strength.
Lord, rise thou in to thi reste; thou and the ark of thin halewing.
9 Thy priests, let them be clothed with righteousness, Thy men of lovingkindness, let them shout for joy!
Thi prestis be clothid with riytfulnesse; and thi seyntis make ful out ioye.
10 For the sake of David thy servant, do not turn away the face of thine Anointed One.
For Dauid, thi seruaunt; turne thou not awei the face of thi crist.
11 Yahweh hath sworn unto David, in faithfulness, will he not turn from it, —Of the fruit of thy body, will I seat on thy throne.
The Lord swoor treuthe to Dauid, and he schal not make hym veyn; of the fruyt of thi wombe Y schal sette on thi seete.
12 If thy sons keep my covenant, and my testimony which I will teach them, even their sons, unto futurity, shall sit on thy throne.
If thi sones schulen kepe my testament; and my witnessingis, these whiche Y schal teche hem. And the sones of hem til in to the world; thei schulen sette on thi seete.
13 For Yahweh hath chosen Zion, —He hath desired it as a dwelling for himself:
For the Lord chees Sion; he chees it in to dwelling to hym silf.
14 This, is my place of rest unto futurity, Here, will I dwell, for I have desired it;
This is my reste in to the world of world; Y schal dwelle here, for Y chees it.
15 Her provision, will I abundantly bless, Her needy ones, will I satisfy with bread;
I blessynge schal blesse the widewe of it; Y schal fille with looues the pore men of it.
16 And, her priests, will I clothe with salvation, and, her men of lovingkindness, shall, shout aloud, for joy;
I schal clothe with heelthe the preestis therof; and the hooli men therof schulen make ful out ioye in ful reioisinge.
17 There, will I cause to bud a horn to David, I have prepared a lamp for mine Anointed One;
Thidir Y schal bringe forth the horn of Dauid; Y made redi a lanterne to my crist.
18 His enemies, will I clothe with shame, but, upon himself, shall his crown be resplendent.
I schal clothe hise enemyes with schame; but myn halewing schal floure out on hym.
